Open file to a specific worksheet

I have an MS Access database that points to a specific Excel file that has 10 spreadsheets. Is there any way to address the file so that it will open a specific tab? My filename is D:budgetmonthly_report.xls (this file has multiple tabs Jan, Feb, etc..) Can you address the file name with month name so that specific tab is what opens?

Thanks for any help. Paul

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
In the code for the ThisWorkbook add in the following code and subsitute Jan for whatever month you want to open:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Worksheets("Jan").Select
End Sub

I hope this helps.
Kind regards, Al.
